Xu Xianchun, who was lying on the ground and struggling to sit up, was probably the only one who wanted to gag after hearing Wei Bao's words.

Xu Xianchun wanted to find out that he was fighting Wei Bao when he was injured! Otherwise, the five Weibao may not be their opponents!

But this kind of talk can only be effective if it is said after a draw or a win, and if you either don't fight, or if you lose, others will think it is an excuse, but look down on him even more.

"How? Lord Xu, go back to the prison of the Criminal Department with Lord Zhu and the others for a few days and explain the matter clearly, right? Wei Bao smiled at Xu Xianchun and said: "We all said it before we fight, if you win, I don't care about it." If I win, you'll have to go to the prison to explain the situation. ”

"Hmph, why should I listen to you? If it weren't for your sneak attack and I was injured, I could have lost to you, kid? I won't go with you, what can you do with me? "Xu Xianchun, an old fritter, naturally will not repromise, and naturally will not be squeezed by Wei Bao.

In fact, Xu Xianchun is not afraid to go to the Criminal Department, what can the Criminal Department do to him? This world is the world of Father-in-law Wei, and it has to be Father-in-law Wei who has the final say, but he commanded the affairs of Jinyiwei and went to the criminal department, which will degrade the prestige of Jinyiwei even more.

Tian Ergeng also said: "Master Wei, let's do it, you take Miss Yang away too, how about today's affairs in the future?" ”

Wei Bao heard that there was a faint threat in Tian Ergeng's words.

Wei Bao is a little scared now, but he is not very scared.

I'm a little happy, but I'm not very happy.

began to decide to take Xu Xianchun into the limelight, but he was also forced, because Xu Xianchun wanted to forcibly detain Yang Xue, and he had to rescue the beauty, otherwise it was not in line with Lord Wei's heart.

But offending Jinyiwei fiercely in this way is not what Wei Bao wants.

Seeing that Wei Bao didn't speak, Zhu Yanxi also persuaded: "Master Wei, let's do it, let's go back first." ”

Then Zhu Yanxi said to Tian Ergeng again: "Now you can hand over Lord Yang Lianzuo Guangdou and them, right?" ”

"Master Zhu, didn't I already make it very clear just now? Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and the others are no longer with us, and I don't know where they are now, if you want to find them, go to the grand dukes of Dongchang. Isn't it enough that you have beaten our people now, and these people involved in the case have also been taken away by you? Do you want to dismantle all the Jinyi guards and yamen to be satisfied? Tian Ergeng said, no more nonsense, and was about to leave with his sleeves.

Wei Bao originally had the heart to catch Xu Xianchun and leave, but seeing that Zhu Yanxi didn't have the same mind, he was too lazy to do anything, sighed, and secretly thought that there were more people who had offended today.

"Master Wei, thank you for supporting the old man today." Zhu Yanxi saw Wei Bao's thoughts, and said to Wei Bao: "Master Wei doesn't have to worry, in the future, Lord Wei's business will be the old man's business, even if the old man is no longer in the imperial court, we Donglin people still have seventy or eighty percent of the people in the entire Ming Dynasty Yamen at all levels." ”

Zhou Rupan and Ding Shaoshi also expressed their support for Wei Bao, and vigorously put a high hat on Wei Bao, saying that Wei Bao is a rare talent in the Donglin Party in recent years.

Wei Bao couldn't help but sweat at the waterfall, when did I become a member of your Donglin Party?

"Three old men, did you just give up? Don't you save Lord Yang Lian? I originally wanted to arrest Xu Xianchun and exchange Xu Xianchun with them. Wei Bao deliberately said a little loud, so that everyone next to him could hear it, especially Yang Xue wanted to hear it.

Yang Xue really heard it, and only felt warm in her heart, in the past few days, Wei Bao was still the first person in the officialdom who really cared about her family.

's father's death also made Yang Xue understand a lot of officialdom at once.

Originally, her father was just a clear stream, although he had a high status in the Donglin Party, but he seemed incompatible with most people, and he didn't have many friends, but he was respected everywhere he went.

Now that her father has been arrested, the situation has taken a turn for the worse, no one respects their family, and everyone seems to be prejudiced against her, as if she is already the daughter of a criminal official.

Yang Xue now fully understands Xiong Xin'er's thoughts.

Originally, Yang Xue was very unhappy because Xiong Xin'er left with Wei Bao that day, and then lived in Wei Bao's mansion, but now she won't think so.

"It's not appropriate to talk about this matter here, I'll tell Master Wei alone when I go back." Zhu Yanxi hurriedly whispered.

Zhou Rupan and Ding Shaoshi also approached Wei Bao affectionately and mysteriously, telling him that he was still too young, and he had to tell him a lot of things in the officialdom slowly.

Wei Bao understood the attitude of the three of them when he saw it, you are just acting and pretending to be? You don't seem to have any intention of saving Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and the others, right?

Now Wei Bao finally understands, no wonder why the Donglin Party is so powerful in the entire Ming Dynasty, but it can't fight the eunuch party, and it has been a routine for a long time.

Wei Zhongxian did not think about eradicating the Donglin Party, and the Donglin Party did not think about fighting with the eunuch party.

The two factions that seem to be incompatible with each other have always been just exchanging interests.

"Okay, then I'll send someone to send a few adults back to the cabinet, and I'll take the rest back to the yamen first." Wei Bao Road.

"Lord Wei, why don't we go to the cabinet and sit down, right?" Zhu Yanxi was reluctant to part with Wei Bao, and planned to add to the fire, take Wei Bao down in one fell swoop, and let Wei Bao completely become a member of the Donglin Party, "Lord Wei, go to my house for a drink or two at night, and Lord Zhou and Lord Ding will accompany you, how about it?" ”

Wei Bao didn't have the heart to drink this kind of wine, and it was impossible for him to walk with the Donglin Party now.

Not to mention now, Wei Bao never thought of getting together with the Eunuch Party, let alone with the Donglin Party.

In the future, even if Chongzhen comes to power and the Donglin Party is in power, Wei Bao has no intention of coming together with the Donglin Party.

In feudal society, only when the imperial power is strong and the imperial power is enough to suppress the civil and official clique, can the government be stable and the common people can live a life of food and clothing.

Because the civil official group does not put the position of helping the emperor to do things, but puts it in the position of not knowing the height of the sky, pointing fingers at the emperor all day long, and everyone feels that they are more powerful than the emperor, the country with a feudal system will not be able to get better!

The feudal system is the feudal patriarchal system, and the head of a family is criticized and looked down upon all day long, and it is no wonder that this kind of family is not chaotic.

"Thank you for the kindness of Lord Cifu, I have some things to do with martial arts these days, and the things on official business have been exhausted, and I have to be busy practicing martial arts after dispersing every day, I really can't get out of my body, I hope Lord Cifu don't be surprised." Wei Bao casually found a reason to shirk. His reason is not bad, because he just showed that he does know martial arts, and Zhu Yanxi, Zhou Rupan and Ding Shaoshi don't understand the things above martial arts, and they don't know whether what Wei Bao said is true or false.

"Lord Wei is so busy practicing martial arts? You are an official, in fact, how much attainment you have in martial arts does not affect the career of Master Wei, don't put the cart before the horse. Zhou Rupan persuaded: "With Master Wei's age and talent, I am determined to pursue a career, and in a few years, I am afraid that I will be able to advance to the next level when I am 20 years old." ”

Wei Bao is now the fifth grade, and the next level is from the fourth grade, Wei Bao is by no means rare.

"I just practiced martial arts to strengthen my body, and I didn't want to practice to the point of profundity." Wei Bao smiled slightly, "At first, I thought it didn't take much effort, but I didn't expect that it would really take several hours every day, especially now that it has taken a lot of effort, this time is just the right time, and I really can't afford to delay." If I could, I would like to ask Jifu-sama to help me take a vacation, so that I can practice at home for a month or two. ”

"Lord Wei is such an important position, and now the imperial court is in an eventful time, let alone taking a leave of absence for a month or two, I'm afraid it won't be easy to do for a day or two." Zhu Yanxi said with a smile, and wanted to persuade Wei Bao to go to his house to drink today.

"Then please ask Master Zhu to help me take two days off? I was fighting Xu Xianchun just now, and it seems that I am injured and need to rest. "Wei Bao is on the slope.

In fact, there are a lot of vacations for Ming officials, and no one cares about the small yamen, such as the county yamen, the county lord doesn't show up for half a year, it's okay, as long as the tax is handed over to the officials in charge of the tax, the case is handed over to the head arrester, and then the role of a master or something, there is still a county in the county ya, everything can be done.

The big yamen is even more relaxed, and many positions are a lot of overlapping personnel, and I told my colleagues that it would be okay if I didn't come for a few months, otherwise how could there be so many empty salaries.

"It's not difficult, Lord Wei did put a lot of effort into the fight just now, and he really needs to recuperate for two days." Ding Shaoshi said: "Lord Second Assistant, when will the trial of Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and other officials begin?" ”

At this time, Yang Xue had already arrived at Wei Bao's side, and she listened with her ears pricked up behind Wei Bao's back.

"Later, we will report to the Yamen of the Three Law Divisions! You wait and see, this case will not be tried in a month or two! Dongchang and Jinyiwei don't hand over people? How to judge? Moreover, this thread is directly in the hands of His Majesty, Your Majesty is not in a hurry, we have nothing to do, if Your Majesty is in a hurry, you must first ask Wei Zhongxian! Wei Zhongxian was in a hurry, and the trial of this case was much faster. So, we nominally got the errand to preside over Yang Lian's Zuo Guangdou case, but in fact, it's all a disguise, but in fact, it's still not much of a big deal for us. Zhu Yanxi sighed.

Originally, Zhu Yanxi didn't want to say these things in such a messy environment, but seeing that Wei Bao didn't really want to get close to them, this made Zhu Youxiao a little anxious, and he didn't know when he would have this opportunity to talk to Wei Bao alone.

Zhou Rupan and Ding Shaoshi also said a few words about their difficulties, and both expressed a strong hope that Wei Bao would fight side by side with them and let Wei Bao join the Donglin Party.

Wei Bao listened more and said less, and he kept saying nothing, and he didn't confide in the whole thing, and he had a perfunctory attitude.

Zhu Yanxi, Zhou Rupan and Ding Shaoshi are all old foxes who have been officials for decades, so they naturally saw that Wei Bao's attitude was not positive, and his enthusiasm was a lot colder, so he said a few more words and dispersed.

"They didn't really want to save my dad." Yang Xue said angrily to Wei Bao after Zhu Yanxi, Zhou Rupan and Ding Shaoshi, as well as the dozens of cabinet guards they brought, were sent away.

"People are selfish, look at it." Wei Bao smiled.

"You have nothing to do with my family, why are you helping my family?" Yang Xue blushed and asked in a low voice, she originally wanted to ask Wei Bao directly why she wanted to help her, she knew that Wei Bao didn't even want to tie up with Zhu Yanxi's identity, let alone her father, Wei Bao definitely didn't contribute to her father's affairs for the sake of his career.

"For you, what else?" Wei Bao looked at Yang Xue playing.

Yang Xue lowered her pink face, her beautiful eyes fluttered, and she said softly: "Are you interested in me?" What about Xin'er? If adults can help me rescue my father, Yang Xue is willing to be a cow and a horse for adults for the rest of his life. ”

Hehe, Wei Bao is secretly funny, it seems that the girls of Daming love to be cows and horses for others, and this is the sentence at every turn.

"If you want to be with me, I think it's best to do it on the basis that you like me as a person, not because you want to ask me for help. Because even if you don't like me, I may not help you. There is another one, I have to make it clear to you first, although I have not yet made a marriage with someone, but I already have a candidate for a wife, and my woman can only be a concubine. This must be made clear to you in advance, for fear that I will wronged Miss Yang. This kind of talk is said a lot, and Wei Bao now speaks very smoothly, without any feeling of cowardice.

His candidates are Zhao Jinfeng and Wu Xuexia, as for who wins in the end, Wei Bao doesn't want to think about it for the time being, anyway, the later women can't be in turn, and everything must have a sequence.

Yang Xue was stunned, however, he was not too surprised, Wei Bao is the current figure of the Ming Dynasty, he went to high school at a young age, and he was promoted to four levels in a row for more than a month, jumping directly from a seventh-grade official to a fifth-grade official.

Wei Bao's affairs are all rumored to be amazing, as for the women around Wei Bao, that is the focus of this kind of gossip news, Wu Xuexia, Wang Qiuya, and Princess Zhenming's origins, many people know.

Few people know about Fan Xiaolin, Xu Rui, and Sister Fang, because the three of them did not come to the capital with Wei Bao.

This is that Wei Bao's security level is too high, otherwise the various factions don't know how many spies they have sent to break into the Wei Mansion, as long as one person is in, there will be more secrets in the Wei Mansion that are known to outsiders.

"I know all this, I don't want to be the wife of an adult, as long as I can save my father, I am willing to be a slave. I didn't just want Lord Wei to save my father, I also had a good impression of Lord Wei. Yang Xue said, her voice getting lower and lower, almost inaudible.

Wei Bao smiled, feeling so uncomfortable, and deliberately teased her, "Can't you?" Why do I always feel like you hate me? ”

When Yang Xue heard this, her eyes turned red, and she didn't know what to say.

Wei Bao heard that Yang Xue's brothers were still crying bitterly about Yang Zhicai's death, and he also felt that at this time, it was very inappropriate to flirt with other girls when they were in such pain, so he didn't be presumptuous.

"Then you go back with me, and I'll try my best to save your father, but I'll say okay first, I don't need you to repay anything, and I don't dare to guarantee that I can save your father, after all, you should know who your father offended." Wei Bao Road.

"Thank you, Lord Wei, if I had a childish place in the past and collided with Lord Wei, I will apologize." Yang Xuedao.

"No need, I still like that you used to be a little wayward." Wei Bao couldn't help but smile, "If I need a submissive woman, I already have a group of wives and concubines, I prefer the nature of men and women getting along, and I like the true temperament of girls." ”

Yang Xue glanced at Wei Bao and hummed softly.

Wei Bao then asked Yang Xue to take him back to the house, he went to the yamen of the Metropolitan Procuratorate by himself, and asked Lin Wenbiao to help him contact Wei Zhongxian, he wanted to explain to the nine thousand years old in person, Wei Bao knew that this time he beat the Jinyi guard and caused a catastrophe! Wei Bao wants to minimize the blow to himself from this incident.

"My lord, this time our brocade guard is completely planted!" Xu Xianchun was indignant and said to Tian Er.

Tian Ergeng, as the chief officer of the Jinyi Guard, how can he not be angry? "I didn't expect Wei Bao to be so rampant, but this matter is not over! I'm going to say it to the nine thousand years old in person now, as long as Wei Bao is dealt with heavily, our Jinyiwei's signboard can be regarded as preserved. ”

"Yes, we must kill Wei Bao, not only to find the nine thousand years old, but also to talk to Lord Gu Bingqian, Lord Wei Guangwei, Huang Liji and Lord Feng Quan, and kill Wei Bao together. By the way, Lord Tian, don't you have an unusual relationship with Lord Feng Quan? Lord Feng not only has a good relationship with the nine thousand years old, but I heard that he also photographed Mrs. Ke and His Majesty, you let Lord Feng Quan think of ideas for us. ”

When Tian Ergeng heard the name Feng Quan, his old face turned red, and he didn't answer the words, "Then let's go our separate ways, I'll go to Jiu Qiansui now, and you go to find a few adults." ”

"Good! I asked Sun Yunhe, Yang Huan, and Cui Yingyuan to persuade a few important adults, this matter is not only our Jinyiwei's business, but also Your Majesty's business, and Wei's father-in-law's business. After Xu Xianchun finished speaking, he coughed again and again.

"It doesn't matter to you, does it? Looks like you've hurt your guts. "Tian Er's ploughing road.

"It is estimated that it will take five or six years to recuperate! I won't repay this evil breath, and I will swear to death. Xu Xianchun's eyes were cracked.

Then Xu Xianchun and Tian Ergeng summoned Sun Yunhe, Yang Huan, Cui Yingyuan and others to act separately.

Wei Bao is out of the limelight today, without a stick of incense, the entire Beijing Division, and even the surrounding areas of the Beijing Division, know the vigorous deeds of Master Wei, and actually took a group of officers from the Imperial Procuratorate and Dali Temple directly to the entrance of the Jinyi Guard, and hammered hundreds of Jinyi Guards.

All of a sudden, the limelight of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Dali Temple reached its peak.

Wei Bao originally thought that Wei Zhongxian would summon him in the evening, but he didn't expect that someone would come to the palace in the afternoon, and several eunuchs would let him enter the palace to face the saint.

It was a few people who Wei Bao was familiar with, and Wei Bao hurriedly let his secretary do it, and Guo Wenliang, who also served as the imperial historian, rewarded several eunuchs.

"Grand Duke, Your Majesty summoned me alone? Do you know what's going on? Wei Bao asked quietly.

The great eunuch Wei Bao is familiar with is called Liu Ruoyu, born in the twelfth year of Wanli (1584 AD), and is a native of Dingyuan in the south.

His family was hereditary Yanqingwei in command, and his father should be the deputy commander of Liaoyang Xiezhen. He once compiled the miscellaneous history of the Ming court "Zhizhongzhi".

The Chronicles of the Ming Dynasty is an important document of the deeds of the Ming court.

When Liu Ruoyu was sixteen years old, he was punished by the palace because of strange dreams, and in the twenty-ninth year of Wanli, he was elected as an imperial official and belonged to the name of the eunuch Chen Ju.

In the early years of the Apocalypse, the eunuch Wei Zhongxian dictatorship, and Wei's henchman eunuch Li Yongzhen served as the master of ceremonies.

At the same time, Wei and Li had a lot of intrigues and tricks, so they were quite suspicious of Liu Ruoyu.

Liu witnessed what Wei Li did and was helpless, so he changed his name to "Ruoyu" and used the word painstaking to police himself.

Liu Ruoyu said softly: "Lord Wei, be careful, what you did in the Jinyi Wei Yamen today, Your Majesty already knows, let you enter the palace, you must be talking about this matter." Not only Lord Wei was summoned, but also Lord Gu Bingqian, Lord Wei Guangwei, Lord Huang Liji, and Lord Feng Quan of the cabinet were also summoned by His Majesty. ”

Wei Bao was stunned and asked, "Gone?" Didn't you summon Lord Zhu Yanxi, Lord Zhou Rupan, and Lord Ding Shaoshi? ”

"Nope." Liu Ruoyu said.

Wei Bao nodded, secretly thinking that he only summoned him and a few cabinet ministers of the Eunuch Party, but not a few cabinet ministers of the Donglin Party, what was he doing?

"Since you summoned Lord Gu Bingqian and them, why didn't you summon Lord Zhu Yanxi and them? Grand Duke, can you tell me?" asked Wei Bao.

"I really don't know this, I don't dare to chew the root of my tongue about the things in the palace, that's it, I've already said a lot to Master Wei that shouldn't be said." Liu Ruoyu said cautiously: "Lord Wei, it's better not to ask." ”
